Package: gnome-shell
Version: 43.1-2
Severity: minor
X-Debbugs-Cc: fleobugzilladebian at mailo.fr

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
My main screen is my pc screen, and I have a secondary screen on my left,
plugged into vga port. Sometimes, I change display mode, between "join
screens", "integretad only", and "external only". Here is the problem: when I
return to "join screens" mode, my secondary screen is automatically placed on
the right. I have to put it back to the left each time, in the gnome settings.
Same if I unplug and replug the screen.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
It would be nice if Gnome would remember the layout of the screens(for ex my
secondary screen stay on the left), even if I change screens layout mode, or if
I unplug it and plug it back in.
